Chapter 419
Back in Serenity’s room, Serenity was unpacking for Grandma May. The old lady even brought along
her mug for drinking water.
“Did something happen, Nana? Why did you move out of your place?”
“Sigh. Let’s not go there. My children and grandchildren put me under stress. It’s a thankless job just
worrying about them. I’m going to leave them alone and stay with you for a while. At least, they’ll be out
of my hair.”
Serenity put away Grandma May’s things before going into the bathroom to draw her a bath.” Nana, I
ran the bath for you. You can have a nice hot bath.”
“Okay.” The old lady quickly grabbed a set of pajamas and went into the bathroom. “That’s why I want a
daughter or granddaughter. Girls are so thoughtful. See, Zachary didn’t even show me any concern
since I arrived at the house. Seren, you always have my best interest at heart.”
Serenity replied with a smile, “Nana, you told me Zachary was attentive and caring when you first fixed
us up. Your kids and grandchildren need to live their own lives. You can’t baby them forever. You
should be enjoying your retired life and stop worrying so much about them.”
The way she saw it, Grandma May’s sons and daughters–in–law were most dutiful.
“I want to, but I can’t. Did I mention Zack is caring and attentive? Did you feel that from him? Was I
right?”
Serenity grinned without saying a word.
Zachary was indeed caring and attentive to the people he cared about.
It was not just Zachary, but everyone else too. People tended to have their loved ones‘ best interests at
heart.
Grandma May climbed into Serenity’s bed after taking a bath.
By the time Serenity emerged from the bathroom, Grandma May was deep in slumber.
The only thing was…
The old lady was snoring pretty loudly.
Serenity was speechless.
She could sleep through the storm if she were drunk. Otherwise, Serenity would be tossing and turning
all night at the slightest noise.novelbin
Letting out a sigh, Serenity accepted her fate and climbed into bed to lie down next to Grandma May.
Her bed had two pillows but only one duvet. Not only was Grandma May snoring, but she also hogged
the duvet. She rolled away along with most of her duvet to one side, leaving Serenity
with a small corner of it.
With Grandma May’s snoring thundering in her ears, Serenity tried to stuff her ears, but it only made
her feel uncomfortable.

After trying for over ten minutes, Serenity gave up and slid off the bed with her pillow. Despite her
intentions to bring the duvet along, Serenity could not pull the layered bundle from under Grandma
May. Since the mornings and nights were getting chilly, it was easy to catch a cold if anyone slept
without a blanket.
Her in–laws might point the finger at Serenity if she let Nana catch a cold on her first night. here. Plus,
Serenity would not be able to live with it.
Giving up on the duvet, Serenity went to grab a thick coat from her closet before slipping out with her
pillow.
It was pitch dark outside.
Without turning on the lights, Serenity went to Mrs. Lane’s room and knocked on the door. She cried,
“Are you asleep, Mrs. Lane?”
Although awake at that point, Mrs. Lane played dumb to Serenity’s cries. She even pulled the covers
over her head when Serenity knocked on the door and called out to her. Mrs. Lane made it appear she
was asleep and heard nothing.
“Mrs. Lane.”
Since Serenity could not get Mrs. Lane up, she tried to turn the doorknob only to realize Mrs. Lane had
locked the door. The door could not be unlocked even if she got a spare key.
She could not get into Mrs. Lane’s room, and Grandma May was snoring away in her bedroom.
Serenity fell silent for a moment before helplessly retreating to the sofa. In the end, she lay on the sofa
and covered herself with her thick coat while waiting for the sandman to sprinkle dust in her eyes.
Perhaps God was in cahoots with Grandma May because it started to pour.
The night was already cold, to begin with. The rain only brought the freezing temperature into
the house.
Serenity’s thick coat only offered protection up to her torso. With her legs exposed to the freezing cold,
she simply could not fall asleep.
Sitting up
from the sofa, Serenity decided to grab a pair of socks in her bedroom to put on before trying
dreamland once more.
